That would work out fine if taxes were paid and welfare rolls cleared/cleaned up.
Work permit...you can work, pay taxes, lose most welfare, legally rent an apartment or house, get temporary driving permit etc
Crack down on one person renting an apartment/house and subletting to 10-20 people...granted a blanket in a living room separating you from 15 other people is better than a mud hut etc.
Commit a crime, don’t worry about the courts, you will be heading south for deportation.
No work permit, hit the road.
OF COURSE, nothing works if the running uninterrupted flow of newbies and recent deportees are coming back in.
Once get control of BOTH borders, thing get easier to control here.
ALSO, go after the companies that hire the illegals with no work permits etc...
If someone been here for 10 or 15+ years, contributing to society and not a criminal, work for some kind of fast track provided an employer sponsors them.
All a part of the Establishment plan to keep wages stagnant.
No new laws to benefit those breaking them, no matter how long they have been breaking them.
There are NO “law-abiding” illegal aliens, they MUST be breaking other laws in order to stay here illegally.
